There are N gas stations along a circular route, where the amount of gas at station i is gas[i].
You have a car with an unlimited gas tank and it costs cost[i] of gas to travel from station i to its next station (i+1). You begin the journey with an empty tank at one of the gas stations.
Return the starting gas station‘s index if you can travel around the circuit once, otherwise return -1.
Note:
The solution is guaranteed to be unique.
思路:
1. 是否能travel around? =>只要gas[]加總的和 - cost[]加總的和 > 0,就能夠。=>需要一個INT計算gas[]-cost[]的總合
2. 如何找到起點?如果到了某一站油不夠,那麼起點必須從它後面開始重新找。=>需要一個INT記錄從找到的起點到目前為止的油量

class Solution {public: int canCompleteCircuit(vector<int> &gas, vector<int> &cost) { int sum = 0, total = 0, len = gas.size(), index = -1; for(int i=0; i<len; i++){ sum += gas[i]-cost[i]; total += gas[i]-cost[i]; if(sum < 0){ index = i; sum = 0; } } return total>=0 ? index+1 : -1; }};
